Q: 2000 Toyota tacoma heditates when gas pedal is first pressed?
My toyota tacoma has been heditating when you first press the gas it boggs down a little and then picks back up. It cut off on me twice when trying to go after stopped. Also ive noticed it doesnt have the power it normally does.
Ive cleaned 02 sensors but not replaced and sprayed up in the throttle body and put some seafoam in the gas tank nothin seems to be working any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
A: You failed to provide the engine option for this vehicle- 2.4 L-4, 2.7 L-4,or 3.4L V-6 but will try to help you In general Toyota’s of this vintage have a high failure rate For the MAF (mass air flow) sensor from the symptom that you have it sounds like the MAF is faulty is the MIL illuminated? (check engine light) it would be a good idea to retrieve any codes that are stored in the PCM memory to lead you in the right direction but i am leaning to the MAF but if it has the 2.4 L-4 engine i would lean more to the TPS (throttle position sensor)! 
Q: what is the clutch start button or driving pattern selector button on a toyota tacoma?
the owners manual discribes the button as clutch start cancel switch(manual transmission) or driving pattern selctor button (automatic transmission) but doesnt offer any further detail and i cannot locate any additional info on line. i have a 2003 toyota tacoma prerunner v6 manaul transmission. and need to know what the function of the button is?
A: there is a clutch safety switch on the clutch itself that requires you to push in the clutch to start the truck. by pushing the clutch start cancel button, you bypass that switch thus, you don’t need to push in the clutch to start. drive pattern switch will actually change your shift points slightly to accomodate your driving conditions. by putting it in power mode, you get more torque ‘off the line’ and in economy mode, you get lower rpm’s as on the highway. Hope this helps:-)
Q: Water leak from engine in my 2002 Toyota Tacoma 4×4, what could it be from?
I JUST bought my new 2002 Toyota Tacoma 4×4 on Sunday and today (Wednesday) I noticed for the 1st time a tiny water drip from my engine once it was parked. I was running my a/c for the entire drive so could it just be condensation dripping off? Is this anything that i need to get fixed and should be concerned about? Or could it be something else all together? Any advice or ideas would be helpful. Thanks.
A: I would think that it’s just your a/c dripping, they will leak for awhile after you stop. Just to be sure keep your eye on the radiator for awhile to make sure it’s not loosing water.
Q: How much would new suspension/ struts cost on my 1996 toyota tacoma?
i have a 1996 toyota tacoma with 4wd. lately the suspension has been making a creaking sound when i go over speed bumps or pull into my driveway or if i just go up or down any hills. how much would it cost to repair this?
A: i full lift for your truck would cost around 1600 dollars. i know that wasn’t what you ask. shocks usually go around 60 dollars a piece struts are about the same i would not pay more then 400 for what you need done. do some looking around you should be able to find something on sell labor day is right around the corner and there is always sells on holidays.
Q: how much can I talk down the price of new truck toyota tacoma Asking price 32k ?
Specfically I want to buy a 07+ New truck Toyota Tacoma the Asking Price is 32,000 how much do you think I can talk the dealer down on this? anyone have any comparsion to what they got ?
A: Depends on your state’s sales tax – try for $30,000 even out the door because Carmax in Laurel, MD sells loaded Tacomas for $28K and the out the door price would be right under $30K since Carmax does not haggle on price.
Q: 2000 Toyota Tacoma: What is the total capacity of cooling system?
How much coolant do I have to put into the cooling system when change the coolant in my 2000 toyota tacoma? Thanks
A: 10.5 quarts total fluid capacity
5.25 quarts water
5.25 quarts Coolant
50/50 mix
So a gallon of coolant plus a 1 1/4 quarts coolant.
But to be honest, most mechanics are going to put in a gallon and fill the rest with water…
Q: Will i regret switching from a Toyota Tacoma to a Jeep Wrangler?
I am thinking about selling my 1999 Toyota Tacoma 4×4 with 136000 miles for a 2003 Jeep wrangler x with 78000 miles and a 4inch lift and 35″ tires. The toyota has been the best truck ever not a problem since the factory. Im a little scared of selling it b/c its so dependable. Will i regret selling it?
A: People will not ask you to help them move or carry out the trash if you have a Wrangler. You may miss the pickup bed however.
The Toyota’s seem really reliable but we enjoy towing them out of the mud with our Jeeps.

Q: What are the biggest tires I can put on my Toyota Tacoma 4X4.?
I have a 2005 Toyota Tacoma 4X4. My rims are 14 inches and I would like to put larger tires on my truck. What are the best tires I can buy? I use it mostly for street but sometimes find myself in the snow or mud. In addition, I currently get around 19 miles per gallon. How will these larger tires effect my gas mileage?
A: Hi,
Unfortunately what you mentioned isn’t actually possible. A 2005 Toyota Tacoma CANNOT fit 14 inch wheels. It is physically impossible to get that size of wheel over the brake caliper. Even on the most basic model of 2WD, it was a 15″ tire. 4×4 models almost always came with 16″ wheels.
I would ask that you clarify your actual current tire size – it is most likely a 16″ rim. Beyond that, the largest tire size you can put on the truck depends on if you have the TRD package or not and what you consider actually “fitting”. Some have fit tires as large as 255/85R16 (33×10.5 – tall and skinny) without a lift, but the tires will rub against the frame at full left-right turns. A safe larger size is something in the 31 or 32 inch range. Start looking at a size like 265/75R16 (32″) or 265/70R16 (31″).
For tires, a solid tire for what you have mentioned is the BFG All Terrain T/A. They have a tread pattern that can handle a decent amount of off-road while still maintaining snow/ice on city streets and highway travel. One of the best all-around tires available from my personal experience.
Larger tires will affect your gas mileage. You can expect to loose a 1 or 2 mpg with a larger size. The actual amount depends on your driving and the type of tire you end up choosing. The more agressive the tread, the more resistance there is and the engine has to work harder. A mud tire with large lugs has a lot more resistance then a highway tire.
Another thing to consider is power loss. The larger the diameter of the tire, the slower the engine will run at highway speeds. While this may seem like a good thing, it means that the engine falls out of it’s optimal powerband and the you may have to downshift more on hills. It also means that bigger tires = the truck being slower from a stand still. Fortunately the 2005 Tacoma with V6 engine has a lot of torque and can easily handle one or two inches of tires size increase and the loss of power will be minimal. If you decide to add a lift to the truck and go much bigger, you will find that you will need to regear the differentials to get your power back (not cheap).

Q: What is a good sell $$ for stock Running brds, Toyota Tacoma ‘06?
Looking to sell Stock Running boards on ‘06 Toyota Tacoma SRS, double cab. What would be feasible price for boards in very condition? Also where is best place to place such an ad?
Thanks in advance.
A: I would say about 150$, you could get more, but someone can go out and buy a nice set of aftermarket running boards for 200$. Considering that your’s have previously been on a truck, are stock (not always a selling point), and that running boards are available from just about anywhere for that particular truck, 150$ is a good asking price. You can sell them on craiglist, ebay, or the local classifieds. Wrecking yards and body shops may also be potential buyers to place the part on national locators.
